Jotting down ideas
 
Sjowaazheñ religion is Basically Buddhism but more proselytizing. They apply the concept of karma and reincarnation to the world collectively in addition to individual humans. That's how the world itself began and ended many times; if humanity collectively behaves badly enough, an apocalypse will come due to the accrued karmic debt and a new universe will arise from the ashes. [I'm not going to use exactly these terms - it's not exactly a "relex" of Buddhism.]
 
Karma/sin and payoffs - The genius of Christianity is to subvert this (in a really twisted way, perhaps)
